Quebec has given birth to steezo as diverse as Celine Dion and William Shatner. In the indigenous Algonquin language Quebec means“where the river narrows”. Out of this land of coalescing waters and styles emerges Vlooper.
Hailing from the francophone Montreal city , Vlooper identifies himself and his art with the struggle/re-definition of Quebecois sovereignity, so don’t call a brother Canadian. When not grinding on the 40-hour a week hustle and or making dope music alongside comrades Kenlo and his stateside westcoast clique Homeless Royalty, Vlooper and his wife engage in community based projects such as running Ociel “ A sovereign teashop/refuge for artists of all disciplines”.
Vlooper’s music sounds like a house party wafting of sweet tobacco full of head nodding, funky, sexy revolutionary cyborgs – full of love and posted up – sharing pastiche nodes of human joy through music. Peep the mixtapes here. |
